Yeah that’s me! I don’t post often these days but check the Forum daily.
I was with him at the end and it was peaceful and he didn’t suffer, so the family are taking some small comfort from that.
Peace and Love to all.
Cheers, JK
....he was, and remains a true rarity in the media world, being someone that nobody has a single bad word to say about.
The tributes to him have been remarkably warm and loving, he was obviously a very talented broadcaster and writer, but more importantly he was plainly a very nice person.
That is very sad. In truth I hadn't heard him on the waves for years but like others have said, he was a very good broadcaster who avoided all the hyperbole and clickbait nonsense the current crop seem obsessed with. Hopefully his family will take some comfort in the kind words posted here and elsewhere.
"Look, I don't wanna be the same as everybody else. That's why I'm a Mod, see?"

Fantastic broadcaster who always had a soft spot for Ipswich and ran a quiz in our fantastic 2001 season ‘The answer is Ipswich’. He also read out my nomination for poor pun Programme article titles as I submitted ‘Mogga Issue’ along side another contribution from a Millwall fan for ‘Jacket’s sleeve notes’.
Will be sadly missed by all but especially family and friends.

We are, and thank you all for your kindness and thoughfulness.
Properly gutted about this. Many incredibly happy memories of getting home from seeing Burley's boys dish out another thumping to then listen to Mr Kelly's dulcet tones asking (for example) whether anyone may have ever approached Henry VIII to ask him "Any more wives?" He once asked me to look up what Emile Heskey's middle name was.

These shows are absolute gold. Every once in a while I'll have a listen to the old Baker and Kelly stuff, it's like Ricky Gervais Merchant and Plikington on xfm. Timeless stuff.
I got on there once in 98 Talks Radio days, I worked at some pointless England friendly. At the Student Union the advert said stewards wanted so we all jumped in then once we got on the coach on the motorway down we weren't actually stewards but we were working in the burger bars and me and my mates job was to stock up all the burger vans outside the ground so we didn't even get into the stadium never mind seeing any football.
They wanted to know why anyone would want to go to such a pointless game. It was a 10 minute rollercoaster, DK was giving me a proper interview asking what had gone down and what the uniform was like then DB went off on one about the tight trousers of the lesbian security guards at his local art gallery and there used to be a stall outside Wembley called Fingerless Frank's Mystery Tacos.

Apologies if posted elsewhere but just been listening to a Baker and Kelly edition where they feature the Steve Sedgeley doll , in which pins inserted in said knitted effigy and he subsequently has a mare for the next 5 games.
